Satellite L350D-213 - Updating drivers on Windows 7

Bought Satellite L350D-213 mid Nov. Pre-loaded with Winodws 7. System auto detect on Tosh site shows that whole batch of new Windows7 drivers issued on 3/12/09. Was wondering whether I need to install all these drivers.
Up to now only prob has been webcam "locked by another application" which hours of web searching showed to be very common prob. Downloaded latest webcam driver issued on 3rd Dec. Cam ok at moment but only time will tell. Is it advisable to go through the whole list of applicable drivers or leave things as they are. Don't want to cause uneccessary probs.
Any advice welcome.

Hello
Its nice to read that your webcam works properly now and this would be also my suggestion to update the driver regarding this issue.
However, if your computer runs properly now I dont see any reason to update any drivers. Why you should do this?
I think drivers are only released to solve problems on other notebooks or compatibility issues so if you dont have problems you must update nothing. I can recommend never change a running system! ;)
So have fun with your notebook dont bother about updating drivers.

  • Is my Satellite L350D-213 supported for TV output?

    I'm not sure i'm able to display my laptop screen onto my TV, i'm a bit of a newbie to this sort of stuff :S
    My laptop model is Toshiba Satellite L350D-213, if my laptop is not supported for it; is there any other way i could display it?
    Thanks,
    alexdarbon.

    Hi
    It seems that your TV supports the s-video socket.
    Therefore you could use a cable [VGA to S-Video|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61cIaRuNTZL._SL500_AA300_.jpg]
    There is also an PC input socket available this means that you can connect the LCD as an external monitor to the notebook.
    I think for this connection an VGA cable should be ok.
    I would recommend visiting an electronic equipment dealer downtown and to ask for a right cable.

  • Satellite L350D-213 frquently overheats and turns off

    Hello
    Recently been having trouble with my Toshiba Laptop Satellite L350D-213, it frquently overheats and turns off, any suggestions as to stop it overheating would be greatly appriciated

    Hi
    There are a lot of advices regarding the overheating issue.
    First of all the notebook shuts down automatically in order to prevent the hardware parts from damage the higher temperature could affect the parts and this is the reason why the notebook shuts down.
    Why the temperature is too high?
    Well, maybe the cooling modules dont run with best performance due to dust and debris inside the modules?
    This is mostly the reason why the fans cannot rotate and cannot cool down the notebook.
    I recommend checking this and to remove the dust and debris from cooling vents using compressed air spray.
    I do this from time to time and it helps to keep the fans clean

  • Satellite A300D-126 - Need drivers for Windows 7

    Hello everyone.
    We have two problems with two drivers so:
    Display driver 8.634.1 - don't work zoom settings. New Catalyst 9.11 does not help me.
    Sound Driver 4.98.6.61 - failed instaled.
    I installed display driver for Vista and sound for XP but I think I need an update because videocard with this 8.452.2-080130a-059298C driver working so slowly .
    What to do ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi mate,
    First of all you cant use Windows XP drivers on Windows 7. This will not work.
    You wrote about different drivers for Vista and XP Ok, the most Vista drivers are also work on Windows 7 but Satellite A300D is Windows 7 supported. That means you can already get Windows 7 drivers on the Toshiba page:

  • What Vaio Models Are The Updated Drivers For Windows 10 Going To Be Compatible With?

    I have a Sony Vaio (Model Number: VPCEJ16FX) and am wondering what models of Vaio will be supported by the updated drivers?

    I understand that Sony is not to support endless models of the computers that have been placed by them out on the open market, however Microsoft itself has found a need to include windows 7 computers within their list of computers eligible for a free upgrade. As such, when Sony tells us that they will not participate in the upgrade, they essentially tell me that if they create a product that fails, that they will not support it at all, and leave all their loyal customers to fend for themselves. I have been a long time supporter of Sony and have unbelieveably been an ambassador for their company, for years since I was a child, I owned Sony Walkmen, minidisc players, DVD players, televisions, ALL OF MY COMPUTERS EVER WERE SONY, sony rewards, sony wheelers (wheel of fortune) club, Countless car stereos, home stereos, Sony dream machine alarm clocks in every room, playstation, PS2, PS3, periferals, cases, Imagestation, Sony eMarker, many of which have failed, and we accepted those failures in fact and still continued on supporting your innovation and knowhow because you continued support or somehow some way still found a way to make things right, KEEPING OUR LOYALTY!!!! And now we find ourselves here, a company that's failing little by little, when I see that they do not support drivers for computers they built NOT THAT LONG AGO, and which Microsoft themselves will support, it makes me wonder. Why should I continue with a brand that keeps facing triumphant failures and doesn't seem to care anymore about the people reliying on what products the company has put out on the market? Is this the beginning of a trend we will see from now on? I REALLY REALLY hope not. You make great products but when something goes wrong if you do not support it and make it right, you're worthless. Why? Because something eventually goes wrong with even the best of things, and you need to learn again how to make things right. Windows 10 has been in the works for some time now, and I know that Sony still had access to developer models for almost a year now, and yet still we have to wait another month. I expect nothing but the best from this company, because they set the standard so high. Glass half full, you built me a fantastic computer that still works great everyday! You need to support and recognise that, use it as a testament, an advertisement that you build great things, keep your flame alive, keep supporting, improving, developing and innovating, and you will find your numbers will turn around. I hope to see some Win 10 drivers, patches, SOMETHING available in the not too distant future that somewhat mirrors what microsoft is ready to support. Thank you. 

  • Update drivers after Windows 10 upgrade?

    I have a Y50-70 and have upgraded to Windows 10. Everything seems to be working ok, but I noticed there are a collection of drivers on the download page for this prodcut. It seems like the drivers for a number of these things was upgraded to a newer Windows 10 version as part of the upgrade, but these are Microwoft drivers. Do I need to install these Lenovo drivers? For example, there audio driver on my machine is now a version 10.x from Microsoft. The one on the download page is listed as specifically for Windows 10 but is version 6.x (probably a Lenovo version). It has always striked me odd that a computer owner needs to monitor these drivers manually. It seems to me something akin to "Windows Update" should be watching over the drivers for us. Perhaps even Windows Updat itself with the vendors sending in their drivers, or addresses to the drivers for Update to send out. thanks!

This has been a big bone of contention with the NVidia drivers since NVidia wants to control their drivers through its own interface (GE Force Experience), but Windows 10 keeps overwriting any driver one tries to instal from a 3rd party. I believe the only exception would be if Microsoft does not have a driver for said hardware or feature.  There is supposedly a short term workaround and supposedly a feature called "slow ring" or something like that to allow you an option to receive automatic updates at a later date than they are normaly pushed. Windows 10 has supposedly done away of User Options concerning updates, which is a problem in my opinion. http://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2015/07/25/windows-10-automatic-update-problems/  Another Windows 10 potential problem is WiFi Sense which stores your WiFi password on a Microsoft server and all of your contacts from Outlook to Facebook and beyond can also have access to YOUR network IF they happen to be within range of your network. If within range, they could auto login and use your WiFi and possibly more. I'm not sure if this answered you question fully but Microsoft has confirmed that if you change driver updates, Win 10 will just update it again using what Windows believes you should use. Read the article posted above. There could be newer info out since that is about one week old. 

  • Satellite L350D-213 wont boot

    Hi
    I've been through the forum and not found a solution. Having trouble booting the laptop.
    L350D-213
    Win 7 32 bit
    A week ago I started having an intermittent problem where the laptop would not wake up after going to sleep. I could normally resolve this by powering down ands rebooting. However it has now got to the point where I cannot turn it on at all. The laptop starts, the fan starts spinning, the hard drive starts running but it goes no further. There is nothing on the screen at all. I have tried with a monitor and still nothing. If I have a USB mouse plugged in when I switch it on the light on the bottom will flash briefly and then go off
    I have tried turning on by holding down the power button, I have tried without battery. I have unplugged battery and power cable and held power button down for a minute. Still have the same problem. This eveningi tookl the laptop apart and attempted to remove the cmos battery. It is stuck hard but I managed to remove it (breaking off one of the metal connectors in the process. It is now taped down.) Regardless, the same povlem happens. Does anyone have any ideas or shall I just buy a new motherboard?
    Thanks

    On this virtual way it is not easy to offer exact diagnostic but after reading your first posting Im afraid there is some serious issue with the mainboard. It is pretty old notebook model so warranty is probably expired.
    I dont think there is anything you can do about it. Have you already looked around if you can find well working used mainboard for good price?

  • HT3986 Need to update drivers on Windows 7 Ultimate on my Macbook.

    I have installed a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on Boot Camp for my MacBook. Once I use the Windows side of my Mac, I can't connect to the Internet wirelessly because it requires some sort-of network adapter. I was told by a friend I need to update the drivers on it but I don't know how. HELP!

    It appears you did not follow the instructions when you ran Bootcamp Assistant. The first menu item was to download the Windows Support Software. This software contains the drivers you need. After starting Windows you then install the Windows Support Software you downloaded in step 1.
    If you did not download the Support software, run Bootcamp Assistant again and select only the option to download the support software.

  • Updating drivers for Windows 8 boot camp

    Hi there,
    I just installed the full release version of Windows 8 (available through my University) in boot camp. However, the drivers for several devices aren't working properly and should be updated. My question is, if I update the drivers so that the devices are compatable with Windows 8, will the drivers then be mismatched when I revert back to OSX?
    Thank you.

    Sorry, didn't realize that there was a boot camp community - probably a better place for my question. I will repost there. https://discussions.apple.com/message/19847211#19847211

  • Satellite A500 - Remote Control Drivers for Windows 7

    Hi everyone,
    I've bought the Satellite A500, very happy with it, but I've completly change the os (vista) for the windows 7 RC, it works just very fine, the only thing is I can't find any drivers for the remote controller included with the laptop. It just doesn't work, no answer at all... I didn't found any driver for the A500 anyway, even for Vista...
    I just know that the remote works fine because I can use it on the media center of my Xbox 360 !! :p
    But from the laptop, no answer at all... I've looked for everywhere, tried to install the remote driver for others Toshiba Model, even the beta one for 7, but still the same problem...
    Your help is welcome, thank You for any answer.
    Coch, France.

    Hi
    > I didn't found any driver for the A500 anyway, even for Vista...
    It looks like the A500 is very new on the market and I believe the drivers (Vista) will be released in the next time
    You will have to wait a little bit
    I think that the Vista driver would be compatible with the Win 7.
    I have installed Win 7 on my notebook and most of the vista drivers are working.

  • Satellite A200-1M8 - Need drivers for Windows 7

    I have a problem with finding drivers for my computer for Windows 7.
    I've looked at Windows7 beta drivers but there are 3 different numbers and I don't know what to chose
    -A200-ST2041
    -A200-ST2042
    -A200-ST2043
    I would like to know if it would be better to instal Windows 7 x64 or x86?
    tnx for the answers

    Hi
    The beta drivers on the Toshiba US page are designed for the US models and so you cant find your A200-1M8. I think it makes no difference what model you choose. Just try it! ;)
    Furthermore its your choice if you install Windows 7 x64 or x86. Some older applications maybe not run properly on 64bit OS. So its depending on the applications that you run.
    But I will buy Windows 7 64bit because I have an old system with Windows XP where I can run my older applications.

  • Should i install driver updates suggested by windows update?

    I have a black MacBook 2.2 i believe late 2007 model.
    I have windows 7 installed via bootcamp and have updated bootcamp to 3.2. things are working fine  I guess. I noticed after i installed and ran windows update there are drivers it wants to update for Display - Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family.
    Just wondering If I should update this, just because i didnt want it to overwrite a specific driver apple put in there for it..
    Hope that made sense.
    E.T.

    HI E.T.
    It should be safe to update drivers via Windows Update, as this will update any Windows drivers, and also the GPU drivers etc.
    You can also run an Apple Software Update, from within Windows (Start -> Programs -> Apple Software Update) which will bring you up to date with all the Apple & BootCamp drivers.
    Have fun

  • Satellite L350D - BIOS crash after update?

    Hey all.
    Was putting windows XP onto my Satellite L350D, worked fine, had all the drivers in etc and working perfectly. Came back onto the toshiba website and saw there was a BIOS update for it, so, downloaded, and told it to install. Half way through it shut the laptop down (power pack fine and had full battery, so must have been the update).
    Now it won't boot up what so ever. The power light comes on but nothing else works.
    Im guessing it has wiped the BIOS or corrupted it, is there any fix for this or can I send it back to toshiba or am I out of luck?

    Dependant on your skill level a new bios chip can be placed on the board. I'm not familular with your board but generally bios chips come in two flavours, ones that you can place in a holder (more often or not on desktops) and ones that are soldered onto the motherboard. There are places on line that sell bios chips loaded with your laptops bios, it's just a case of then replacing the chip. If you have no soldering skills I wouldn't recommmend doing this yourself though.

  • I need some XP drivers for Satellite L350D-110 PSLE8E

    Hello there.
    I have now my brandnew Toshiba notebook. It comes only with VISTA, a very nice looking system.
    But I want to use my notebook in our office too and then I need to install XP Professional.
    XP is already installed, but i need some drivers to complete the system installation.
    Here is screenshot from my hardware manager (hope it will work in this forum):
    http://img443.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screengmhv9.jpg
    Can anybody help me?
    Or is there a chance to get a downgrade option from Toshiba?? Without a downgrade I cannot use my brandnew notebook.....

    For the Satellite L350D and Windows XP there are all drivers available.
    I think you forget to install two or more drivers.
    Here you can download it:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
    Search for your model and you will get a list of all drivers. Then you can compare which drivers you didnt install yet.
    As Jeffrey said, I should be the AMD Processor Driver, Realtek driver and the card reader.
